Vacuum Massage

Vacuum massage is a device-based procedure used for cosmetic and therapeutic purposes. Treatment of problem areas is performed using a special suction cup into which rarefied air is pumped. There are a number of indications and contraindications for vacuum therapy.

For cosmetic purposes, vacuum massage is performed to stimulate blood flow; tissues begin to receive a better supply of oxygen, lymphatic drainage is activated, and metabolism is enhanced. All of this helps significantly improve skin tone, stimulate the production of elastin and collagen, eliminate fine wrinkles, combat cellulite, and reduce fat deposits. Body contours are significantly reduced, and the skin appears smooth, firm, and even.

For therapeutic purposes, vacuum massage is prescribed for colds, muscle pain and spasms, and swelling; to boost metabolism; and to relieve headaches and treat nervous disorders and insomnia.

The number of therapeutic sessions is determined individually for each patient. For a complete cure, 6 to 20 sessions are usually sufficient.

Boosting metabolism helps rid the body of waste products and toxins without the need for additional cleansing methods. When treating muscle pain, results are noticeable as early as the third session. This is due to rapid muscle relaxation and the elimination of stagnation.

Therapeutic massage is performed on the neck, back, lower back, buttocks, thighs, shoulders, and calves. In cases of organ prolapse, massage is performed on the abdominal area. In the treatment of hypertension, angina pectoris, and vegetative-vascular dystonia, vacuum apparatus massage is combined with medication, acupuncture, and manual therapy.

In addition to its therapeutic effects, vacuum apparatus massage has a general health-promoting effect.

Contraindications for vacuum massage include: birthmarks in the treatment area, pigmented spots, inflammatory and systemic skin diseases, blood disorders, cancer, thrombosis, thrombophlebitis, implanted pacemakers, tuberculosis, lung abscesses, and infectious diseases.

Combination with Other Wellness and Preventive Methods

Vacuum massage is most effective when performed in combination with other treatments, such as cosmetic wraps, the use of anti-cellulite creams, exercise, and manual classical or acupressure massage. And of course, if you’ve decided to embark on a journey to improve your health, combat excess weight, cellulite, and unhealthy-looking skin, you can’t do it without giving up bad habits and eating right.

And don’t forget to drink water! Otherwise, it’s all for nothing, because to increase blood and lymph circulation, there needs to be something to circulate. Only then will the breakdown products of fat cells, waste, and toxins be actively eliminated from the body.
